OBJECTIVE:To analyze the blood concentration monitoring data of 4 commonly used antiepileptic drugs(AEDs, sodium phenytoin,carbamazepine,sodium valproic acid,oxcarbazepine)in order to provide reference for rational use of drugs in the clinic. METHODS:415 patients underwent 4 AEDs blood concentration monitoring were selected from our hospital during 2014-2015,and the results of blood concentration monitoring were analyzed statistically. RESULTS:There were 680 cases of AE-Ds blood concentration monitoring in total. The main objects of serum concentration monitoring were young and middle-aged(range from 19 to 60),involving 449 cases in total(66.03%). 360 cases were in the normal range(52.94%). Among 361 patients receiving single drug therapy,the rates of serum concentration in the normal range were 80.77%for carbamazepine,which was higher than oth-er 3 AEDs(30.00% for sodium phenytoin,47.40% for sodium valproic acid and 40.38% for oxcarbazepine),with statistical signifi-cance(P<0.05). Among 54 patients receiving combination therapy,the serum concentration monitoring data of 67.65%patients treat-ed with double-combination therapy and 100%patients treated with triple-combination therapy deviated from normal range. CONCLU-SIONS:The rate of AEDs blood concentration reaching the normal range are in low level in our hospital. It’s necessary to strengthen medication education for patients to improve the compliance of patients;clinical efficacy of AEDs is evaluated on the basis of blood concentration monitoring and clinical symptom,and combination therapy should be avoided as much as possible.

Objective To analyze the predictive factors of anti-androgen withdrawal in the treatment of androgen independent prostate cancer. Methods 347 cases of advanced metastatic prostate cancer in our prostate cancer database were filtered. All the cases were treated with maximal androgen blockade and had full pathological and clinical information. 237 cases developed to the androgen independent stage during the maximal androgen blockade treatment. Among them, 90 cases were treated with anti-androgen withdrawal. This 90 cases were followed up and the last follow-up date was 30 September 2009. The Logistic regression of univariate and multivariate analysis were used to find the predictive factors for the effectiveness of anti-androgen withdrawal, which including baseline PSA, Gleason score, clinical stage, way of castration, kind of anti-androgen, PSA nadir during maximal androgen blockade, time to PSA nadir, PSAV at the time of AIPC, PSADT at the time of AIPC, the effective duration of maximal androgen blockade, age at the time of AIPC and PSA at the initiation of anti-androgen withdrawal. Results Of the 90 cases treated with anti-androgen withdrawal, 3 cases were excluded for analysis because of the incomplete information. Among the 87 cases, 17 cases were effective with the anti-androgen withdrawal treatment while the other 70 cases were ineffective. At the last follow-up, 3 cases were still effective. The median effective duration of anti-androgen withdrawal was 4 months. The univariate analysis indicated that PSAV at the time of AIPC (P=0.033), PSADT at the time of AIPC (P=0.009) and PSA at the initiation of anti-androgen withdrawal (P=0.002)were predictive factors. The multivariate analysis indicated that PSAV (P=0.042) and PSADT at the time of AIPC (P= 0.036) were independent predictive factors for the effectiveness of anti-androgen withdrawal. Conclusions Among the androgen independent advanced metastatic prostate cancer patient, there were about 19. 5% cases effective with the anti-androgen withdrawal treatment and the median effective duration was 4 months. PSAV and PSADT at the time of AIPC were independent predictive factors for the effectiveness of anti-androgen withdrawal.

OBJECTIVE To observe the efficacy and safety of ceftazidime and avibactam sodium (CAZ/AVI) in the treatment of carbapenem-resistant organism (CRO) infection. METHODS The information of patients with CRO infection admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from September 2019 to March 2022 was collected, and the patients were retrospectively divided into observation group (48 cases) and control group (48 cases) according to the treatment plan. The control group was given Polycolistin B sulfate for injection intravenously at a dose of 500 000 U every 12 hours; no dose adjustment was performed in patients with renal insufficiency or receiving continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). The observation group was given continuous micropump of CAZ/AVI for injection intravenously at a dose of 2.5 g every 8 hours for 2 continous hours; among them, the patients with renal insufficiency received an adjusted dose based on creatinine clearance, and no dose adjustment was performed in patients receiving CRRT. The clinical efficacy and microbiological efficacy as well as body temperature, white blood cell (WBC), C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT) before and after treatment were compared between 2 groups. The prognosis and the occurrence of adverse drug reactions were recorded. The factors influencing the clinical efficacy were screened by Logistic regression analysis. RESULTS The effective rate and microbial clearance rate of the observation group were significantly higher than the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, body temperature, PCT and CRP of 2 groups were significantly lower than before treatment, and CRP of the observation group was significantly lower than the control (No.SDFEYJLC2105) group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant differencebetween the two groups in terms of rehabilitation discharge rate, the proportion of patients transferred to general wards,the proportion of dead patients, and the total incidence ofadverse drug reactions (P>0.05). CAZ/AVI and prolonging therapy duration were more likely to achieve clinical benefits (odds ratios of 1.146, 7.707,P<0.05), while lung infection and CRRT may be independent risk factors for treatment failure (odds ratios of 0.182, 0.236, P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS CAZ/AVI has good efficacy and safety in the treatment of CRO infection, the appropriate extension of antibacterial treatment time can achieve a higher clinical response rate, while lung infection or CRRT may lead to treatment failure.
